If the contacts of electrical
parts are defective, replace the
electrical parts without trying to
repair them.
3.
After completion of repairs, the initial state should
be restored.
4.
Lead wires should be connected and laid as in the
initial state.
5.
Modification of the unit by user himself should
absolutely be prohibited.
6.
Tools and measuring instruments for use in repairs or inspection should be accurately calibrated in advance.
7.
In installing the unit having been repaired, be careful to prevent the occurence of any accident such as
electrical shock, leak of current, or bodily injury due to the drop of any part.
8.
To check the insulation of the unit, measure the insulation resistance between the power cord plug and grounding
terminal of the unit. The insulation resistance should be 1M or more as measured by a 500V DC megger.
9.
The initial location of installation such as window, floor or the other should be checked for being and safe
enough to support the repaired unit again.
If it is found not so strong and safe, the unit should be installed at the initial location reinforced or at a new
location.
10. Any inflammable thing should never be
placed about the location of installation.

(2) When any part is handled uncovered (in counting, packing and the like), the handling person must always
use himself as a body earth. (Make yourself a body earth by passing one M ohm earth resistance through
a ring or bracelet).
(3) Be careful not to touch the parts with your clothing when you hold a part even if a body earth is being
taken.
(4) Be sure to place a part on a metal plate with grounding.
(5) Be careful not to fail to turn off power when you repair the printed circuit board. At the same time, try to
repair the printed circuit board on a grounded metal plate.

! CAUTION
1.
In quiet operation or stopping the running, slight flowing noise of refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle is
heard occasionally, but this noise is not abnormal for the operation.
2.
When it thunders near by, it is recommend to stop the operation and to disconnect the power cord plug from
the power outlet for safety.
3.
The room air conditioner does not start automatically after recovery of the electric power failure for preventing fuse blowing. Re-press START/STOP button after 3 minutes from when unit stopped.
4.
If the room air conditioner is stopped by adjusting thermostat, or missoperation, and re-start in a moment,
there is occasion that the cooling and heating operation does not start for 3 minutes, it is not abnormal and
this is the result of the operation of IC delay circuit. This IC delay circuit ensures that there is no danger of
blowing fuse or damaging parts even if operation is restarted accidentally.
5.
This room air conditioner should not be used at the cooling operation when the outside temperature is
below -10°C (14°F).
6.
This room air conditioner (the reverse cycle) should not be used when the outside temperature is below
–15°C (5°F).
If the reverse cycle is used under this condition, the outside heat exchanger is frosted and efficiency falls.
7.
When the outside heat exchanger is frosted, the frost is melted by operating the hot gas system, it is not
trouble that at this time fan stops and the vapour may rise from the outside heat exchanger.

Contact your sales agent immediately if the
following phenomena should occur:
• The circuit breaker switches off or the fuse blows
frequently.
• The switch operation is not stable.
• Foreign matter or water accidentally enters the unit interior.
• The power cord gets excessively hot or its insulation is torn or stripped.
• TIMER lamp on the indoor unit display blinks.
As the nature of the failure can be identified by the blinking cycle,
check the blinking cycle before turning off the circuit breaker.
Noise of the ventilation fan sucking in air present in the drain hose and blowing out
dehumidifying water that had accumulated in the condensed water collector. For
details, consult your sales agent.
Operation noise changes due to power variations according to room temperature
changes.
Mist is generated as the air within the room is suddenly cooled by conditioned air.
Water generated during defrosting operation evaporates and steam is emitted.
Caused as the smells and particles of smoke, food, cosmetics, etc. present in room
air become attached the unit and blown off into the room again.
Defrosting is underway (as the heating operation is stopped, the microcomputer
checks frost accumulated in the outdoor unit and instructs the unit to perform
automatic defrosting if necessary).
Shows preheating or defrosting operation is underway.
As the protective circuit or preheat sensor operates when unit operation is stopped
during preheating and then restarted, or when operation mode is switched from cooling
to heating, the lamp continues to blink.
Actual room temperature may deviate slightly from the remote controller's
temperature setting depending on the number of people in the room, indoor or
outdoor conditions.
– 20 –
Please note:
On switching on the equipment, particularly when the room light is dimmed, a slight brightness
fluctuation may occur. This is of no consequence.
The conditions of the local Power Supply Companies are to be observed.
• Please contact your sales agent immediately if the air conditioner still fails to operate normally after
the above inspections. Inform your agent of the model of your unit, production number, date of
installation. Please also inform him regarding the fault.
Notes
• In quiet operation or stopping the running, the following phenomena may
occasionally occur, but they are not abnormal for the operation.
(1) Slight flowing noise of refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle.
(2) Slight rubbing noise from the fan casing which is cooled and then
gradually warmed as operation stops.
• The odor will possibly be emitted from the room air conditioner because
the various odor, emitted by smoke, foodstuffs, cosmetics and so on,
sticks to it. So please clean the air filter and the evaporator regularly to
reduce the odor.
• If the unit still fails to operate
normally after performing the
above inspections, turn the
circuit breaker off, or pull the
power plug out, and contact
your sales agent immediately.

Second, use the DC/DC converter and the 35 V power supply from the outdoor unit to generate 12 V control
power, which drives the stepping motor during the operation.
In addition, use the regulator IC 121 to generate 5 V power required for driving the micro computer and controlling
fan motor.
If the terminal block was overheated due to a connecting cable improper connection, the thermal fuse built in the
terminal block will burnt to shut off the 12 V line and stop the operation of the indoor unit. Then, the outdoor unit
cannot be communicated with the indoor unit and a communication error occurs (the outdoor LD301 will blink 9
times), stop all operations.

2. Power circuit
This circuit is to convert the power from AC which is provided from the terminal A and B to DC voltage.
And produces an AC current which does not exceed the harmonic amplitude limit of the IEC61000-3-2.
When the compressor is stopped, the AC voltage becomes about 300 V and while the compressor
operates, it is about 280 V.
Fig. 2-1
Main parts
(1) DB2
The DB2 rectifies the AC voltage.
The possible causes for the DB2 failure are as follows. The 15 A fuse may be blown out or the IPM
for the main P.W.B. may have a failure. In such a case, check the 15 A fuse for blowout and replace
the main P.W.B. if necessary.
(2) DB3, L1, C023 and L2
The DB3, L1, C023 and L2 shape waveform of the input current.
When the current runs through the L1 is taken for I1 and the current runs through the L2 is taken for
I2 as shown in Fig. 2-2, I1 becomes an input current to the capacitor which peak value was crushed
by the L1 and I2 becomes a resonance current which causes the LC resonance using the L2 and
C023. By combining the I1 and I2, the input current from the main power shapes a waveform shown
in the right side of Fig. 2-3, indicating that the waveform is similar to sine wave. The more the
waveform is similar to the sine wave, the lower the harmonic current becomes.
If the C023 has any failure, the protection unit activates and the C023 in open mode. In such a case,
replace the failed parts.

(3) C021 and C022
This smoothes the voltage rectified for operating the
compressor.
When the input voltage is taken for the sine wave as
shown in the top of Fig. 2-4, it is rectified by the DB2
and becomes the waveform as shown in the middle
of Fig. 2-4. After that, the voltage is smoothed by
the C021 and C022, and becomes the waveform
shown in the bottom of Fig. 2-4.

(5) C001 to C003, C011, L101, and L102
Fig. 2-4
They absorb electrical noise generated during
operation of compressor, and also absorb external
noise entering from power line to protect electronic
parts.
Be sure to connect the earth cable between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. Otherwise, the
noise filter circuit won’t operate properly.
(6) SA1 and VS1 to VS3
These surge absorber and varistors absorb external power surge such as induced thunder.
Be sure to connect the earth cable between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. Otherwise, the
surge absorber and the varistors won’t operate.
(7) R002 and R007
The resistor R002 protects the rush current when the power is turned on while the resistor R007
protects the rush current when the compressor starts.
When the R002 has any failure, the control power supply won’t operate. When the R007 has any
failure and a strong rush current is generated, the DB2, C021 or C022 may be damaged.

3. Indoor/Outdoor Interface Circuit
The interface circuit superimposes an interface signal on the DC 35V line to perform communications
between indoor and outdoor units. This circuit consists of a transmitting circuit which superimposes an
interface signal transmit from the microcomputer on the DC 35V line and a circuit which detects the
interface signal on the DC 35V line.
Communications are performed alternatively transmitting and receiving.
3-1 Communication signal from outdoor microcomputer to indoor microcomputer.
At first outdoor microcomputer will send a request signal (SDO) to indoor microcomputer.
38 KHz of carrier signal is generated and modulated by the request signal (SDO) from the outdoor
microcomputer pin A.
This signal is superimposed to DC 35V line via C801 and L801.
To prevent erroneous reception, the outdoor microcomputer is designed so that it cannot receive a
signal while it is outputting a request signal.
The receiving circuit in the indoor unit consists of a comparator and transistor. The interface signal
from the outdoor unit on the DC 35V line is supplied to C821, where DC components are eliminated,
and is then shaped by the comparator. The shaped signal is detected by diode, amplified by amp,
and output to pin i of the indoor microcomputer.
Fig. 3-2 shows the waveforms at each component when data is transferred from the outdoor
microcomputer to the indoor microcomputer.
3-2 Communication signal from indoor microcomputer to outdoor microcomputer.
The request signal (SDO) generates by indoor microcomputer is output to pin j , and amplifies by
Q801.
I/F signal approx. 38 kHz is generated by comparator, then modulated by the signal from pin j of
indoor microprocessor.
This modulated I/F signal is then amplified and superimposed to DC 35V line via L801 and C802 of
indoor interface circuit.
Fig. 3-3 shows the waveforms at each component when data is transferred from outdoor
microcomputer to indoor microcomputer.
The circuit operation of the outdoor receiving circuit is same as indoor receiving circuit.

When power is supplied U+→ V- , because of that U+ is chopped, current flows as shown below;
(1) When U+ transistor is ON: U+ transistor → U coil → V coil → V- transistor → DC current detection
resistor → Point B (Fig. 4-1)
(2) When U+ transistor is OFF: (by inductance of motor coil) U coil → V coil → V- transistor →
U- diode → Point A (Fig. 4-4)

Fig. 4-4 Power module circuit (U+ is OFF, V– is ON)
Since current flows at point B only when U+ transistor and V- transistor are ON, the current waveform
at point B becomes intermittent waveform as shown in Fig. 4-3. Since current at point B is approximately
proportional to the input current of the air conditioner, input current is controlled by using DC current
(Id) detection resistor.

• IPM drive circuit
The inverter driving device (IGBT) and the drive circuit are built in the IPM. The IPM receives the
signal from the microcomputer and convert it to 0 – 15 V signal to drive the IGBT.
When the unit operates at low speed, a chopper signal is emitted from the micro computer as shown
in Fig. 4-6. (0 to 5 V)
The signal is converted to 0 – 15 V at inside the IPM and transmitted to the gate of the transistor
(IGBT) in each phase to drive the IGBT.
When abnormal peak current was detected while the inverter is driving, the IPM outputs the Fail
signal immediately from the pin S and forces the lower arm transistor to shut off at the same time. In
this step, the Q501 is turned on and the input signal of the upper arm is also shut off through the
D501 and D502, so that all signals to the IGBT are shut off. This signal is also distributed to
microcomputer (pin G) as a Lo signal to stop the drive signal and blink the self diagnosis lamp as two
time.
When the peak current is detected, the IPM keeps the lower arm off for about 4mS and the drive
signal into stand-by state. 3 minutes after this state, the micro computer outputs the drive signal and
restarts the operation.

6. Microcpomputer's Peripheral Circuits
6-1. Overload control circuit (OVL control circuit)
Overload control is to decrease the speed of the compressor and reduce the load when the load on
the air conditioner increases to an overload state, in order to protect the compressor, electronic
components and power breaker.
Overloads are judged by comparing the DC current level and set value.
Fig.6-1 shows the overload control system configuration and Fig. 6-4 is a characteristic diagram on
overload judgement values. There are two types of control which has named IS OVL and ID OVL.
IS OVL is limiting the whole input of this room air conditioner system through the current sensor CT1
in order to keep the maximum rating of components by reading total operating current.
ID OVL is watching and limits the compressor current through the detection resistor, which is built in
IPM in order to control the compressor reliability. Since the compressor reliability is related with its
speed, the ID OVL value is also linked with the compressor speed. Fig. 6-2 shows an ID OVL limitation
curve.
All of OVL operation values were programmed into EEPROM memory.

Current transformer CT1 reads the input flowing current and detected to the microcomputer as a voltage
signal. Receiving this, the microcomputer converts it to a digital signal and compares it with the internal
data to judge whether or not overload control is required.
Fig. 6-3 shows the rotation speed control. When the voltage at pin u of the microcomputer exceeds
the set value, the microcomputer decreases the rotation speed of the compressor and reduces the
load.

Fig. 6-2. The filter consisting of R245 and C217 removes high harmonic frequencies from the voltage
generated by the current flowing to Detection resistor; R245 and C217 average the voltage. This voltage
is then input to IC4 pin 5 and supplied to microcomputer pin t . The microcomputer compares this
input with the set value, and if the input exceeds the set value, it enters overload control status.
DC current
The set Value is determined by the amplification of the voltage amp. circuit
Amplification : high → DC current : low
Amplification : low → DC current: high
Fig. 6-4 shows the rotation speed control. When the voltage at pin t of the microcomputer exceeds the
set value, the microcomputer decreases the rotation speed of the compressor and reduces the load.

R003,R004,R608,R613, detect the DC voltage at the power circuit. The microcomputer receives a DC
voltage and applies correction to the overload set value so the DC current will be low when the DC
voltage is high.
(Since the load level is indicated by the DC voltage multiplied by DC current, R247, R248, R249 are
provided to perform the same overload judgement even when the voltage varies.)
Fig. 6-5
(3) Start current control
It is required to maintain the start current (DC current) constant to smooth the start of the DC motor of
the compressor.
RAC-25YH5, RAC-35YH5 uses software to control the start current.
The start current varies when the supply voltage varies. This control method copes with variations in the
voltages as follows.
1. Turns on the power module’s U+ and V- transistors so the current flows to the motor windings as
shown in Fig. 6-6.
2. Varies the turn-ON time of the U+ transistor according to the DC voltage level and the start is controlled
so the start current is approx. 10A .

The Over heat thermistor circuit detects the temperature at the surface of the compressor head, the Defrost.
thermistor circuit detects the defrosting operation temperature.
A thermistor is a negative resistor element which has the characteristics that the higher (lower) the temperature,
the lower (higher) the resistance.
When the compressor is heated, the resistance of the Over heat thermistor becomes low and voltage to a
pin v of microcomputer is increased.
Microcomputer compares the voltage at pin v with the internal set value, if it is exceeded the set value
microcomputer judges that the compressor is overheated and stops operation.
When frost forms on the outdoor heat exchanger, the temperature at the exchanger drops abruptly. Therefore
the resistance of the Defrost. thermistor becomes high and the voltage at pin w of microcomputer drops.
If this voltage becomes lower than the set value stored inside, the microcomputer starts defrosting control.
During defrosting operation the microcomputer transfers the defrosting condition command to the indoor
microcomputer via the circuit interface.
The microcomputer always reads the outdoor temperature via a thermistor (microcomputer pin x ), an
transfers it to the indoor unit, thus controlling the compressor rotation speed according to the value set at the
EEPROM in the indoor unit, and switching the operation status (outdoor fan on/off, etc.) in the dehumidifying
mode.
The following shows the typical values of outdoor temperature in relation to the voltage:

When the thermistor is open, in open status, or is disconnected, microcomputer pins v–x are
approx. 0V; when the thermistor is shorted, they are approx. 5 V, and LD301 blinks seven times.
However, an error is detected only when the OH thermistor is shorted; in such a case, the blinking mode
is entered 12 minutes after the compressor starts operation.

• To drive the expansion valve, use the B-12 V output. Use a 4-phase coil and feed power to the
phases 1 and 2, then switch over the filed poles to control the opening of the valve.
• The reference between conducting phase switch over direction and the open/close direction are
shown in Table 9-1. When the power is turned on, approx. 0.9 V is applied to the CN15 and the pins
(1 to 4) and when no power is supplied, 12 V is applied. When the power is reset, the expansion
valve starts initial operation for 5 to 10 seconds.
• During the initial operation, measure each pin of the CN15 (1 to 4) with a multimeter. If no change
is found around 0.9 V or 12V in this step, the expansion valve or the micro computer has failure.

10. Outdoor DC Fan Motor control circuit
This model uses DC Fan Motor which has a controller circuit built in the Motor.
This DC Fan Motor will rotate by control voltage apply to Vsp input. (Voltage range: 1.7 to 7V DC.
Vsp high : Faster ;
Vsp low : slower ;
Vsp lower than 1.7V : stop
Motor will output FG pulse by following this motor revolution.
Outdoor microcomputer will output PWM control signal from £ by following the instruction from indoor
microcomputer.
This PWM control signal will convert to Vsp voltage by smoothing circuit (R242 & C209).
Fan motor will start to rotate when Vsp was proceeding over than 1.7V, and generate FG pulse by
rotation speed.
FG pulse will feed back to Outdoor microcomputer E.
DC Fan Motor circuit has to match the Fan Motor revolution with instructed revolution. Such as...
FG feedback: Faster Instruction: Slower ... Decrease pulse width
FG feedback: Slower Instruction: Faster ... Increase pulse width
FG pulse is also used for Fan Motor failure detection.
Microcomputer will monitor FG pulse 30 seconds after start the fan motor. If there is no signal detected,
it will consider that the Fan Motor was malfunction and stop the operation. In this case, LD302 on control
P.W.B. will blink 12 times. (Fan Motor lock detected)
R107 and IC4 are used for Fan Motor over current.
– 56 –
< Reference >
When operation stop with LD301 blinks 12 times, it may be caused by faulty DC fan motor.
In this case, please check CN6 and CN12 connection first. It makes Fan Motor Lock also if those
connectors are in misconnection.
DC Fan Motor has broken invites 1A Fuse burned. Please replace both DC Fan Motor and 1A Fuse
together.
It will makes “Fan Lock Stop” when something has disturb the Fan rotation by inserting materials into
propeller fan or ice has growing inside of outdoor unit by snowing.
It may make “Fan Lock Stop” by strong wind (ex. 17m/sec or above) against the Fan rotation. In this case
unit will be restart again after a while.
In case of “ Fan Lock Stop” even though the DC Fan Motor is rotating correctly, the possible cause in
Fan Motor problem or control board problem. Stop after the Fan motor runs 2 minutes, Fan Motor may
be broken.
< Caution >
Please take care for the electrical shock by high voltage of DC Fan Motor power source which is common
with compressor when you are servicing this unit.
You can not confirm the coil and wiring of Motor directly due to the built in control circuit in Fan Motor.

A1
Check if the indoor heat
exchanger is frosted.
Wait for 3-4 minutes
until it is defrosted.
If the air conditioner operates
in cooling mode when it is
cold, the evaporator may get
frosted.
DEHUMIDIFYING MODE
Q2
A2
Fan speed is not switched over
during dehumidifying operation.
Q3
A3
Cool air comes from the unit during
dehumidifying operation.
Fans speed is normally set to LOW during
dehumidifying operation.
To have an operation with high dehumidifying
effect, the unit operates at low fan speed.
As a result, cool air comes from the unit.
This phenomenon is not a fault.
HEATING MODE
Q4
The circulation stops
occasionally during
Heating mode.
Q5
A4
It occurs during defrosting. Wait for 5-10
minutes until the
condenser is defrosted.
A5
At the beginning of heating,
the fan speed remains
LOW for 30 seconds. If
HIGH is selected, it
switches to LOW and again
to MED after additional 30
seconds.
A6
If temperature is high in
the outdoor, heating
operation may stop to
protect internal devices.
When the fan speed is set

Q6
Heating operation stops
while the temperature is
preset at "30".
Q7
A7
When “Auto fan” mode is set,
the indoor fan speed changes
from HIGH through MED to
LOW.
This is not an error.
The anti cool air function
shows this phenomenon.
– 58 –
In the fan “Auto” mode, the unit
detects the heat exchange
temperature. When the
temperature becomes low,
the fan speed changes from
